Abstract

Despite growing interest in Computational Thinking (CT) integration within STEM education, significant gaps remain—particularly regarding underrepresented college students, CT inclusion at the entry level, and limited teacher preparation for CT integration. This study addresses these gaps by examining how educators’ professional experiences influence their attitudes and practices related to CT in STEM contexts. It also underscores the urgent need for empirical evidence to navigate the tension between generalized critical thinking frameworks and the unique demands of scientific representations in instructional planning. To map the development and current landscape of CT+STEM research, a bibliometric analysis was conducted on literature published between 1978 and 2023. The analysis reveals a consistent annual growth rate of 7.22% in the CT+STEM domain, encompassing 241 publications across 127 scholarly sources. The study identifies key authors, institutions, and influential works, while also visualizing global collaboration patterns and thematic trends in the field. This research contributes to the advancement of CT+STEM by providing a comprehensive overview of its evolution, highlighting areas of strength and underexplored dimensions. Although the study is quantitative in nature and acknowledges limitations such as potential database bias, it lays a foundation for future inquiry into qualitative methodologies, pedagogical strategies, and inclusive practices. The findings hold significant implications for educational policy, workforce development, and digital-age problem-solving, and call for deeper exploration into the pedagogical and sociocultural dynamics that shape effective CT+STEM integration.

Abstract

Calculus classes often focus on studying derivatives, a fundamental topic in mathematics. Upon finishing their studies, potential mathematics teachers will educate students about advanced concepts such as derivatives in the classroom. Therefore, comprehending derivative concepts is essential for teaching children effectively. This study aims to determine how potential mathematics teachers view themselves concerning derivative concepts based on their concept image and concept definition. The study utilized a hermeneutic phenomenological approach together with qualitative approaches in its research strategy. The research data was obtained through interviews and clinical tests from six participants from one of the universities in Kuningan Regency, Indonesia. The research findings indicate that participants' concept image of derivative concepts is limited to symbolic representations. Most participants did not view derivative concepts as providing a deeper understanding but rather as a technique to solve procedural problems. The results indicate that utilizing a range of representations in the learning process can improve the development of a more thorough conceptual understanding, leading to better comprehension of derivative concepts.

Abstract

During COVID-19, various obstacles were experienced during learning, including in learning mathematics. Learning had to be carried out online. Therefore, learning designs were also attempted to be made online. The learning design in this research was prepared using didactical design research. Participants in this research were 29 students at one of the junior high schools in Indonesia. The researcher was the main instrument in this research, along with several additional instruments, such as the fraction sequence test, interview guide, and online learning design. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis and qualitative analysis. The research results revealed that the factor that caused students to experience obstacles in ordering fractions was due to students’ low prerequisite knowledge regarding LCM (conceptual ontogenic obstacle). The online learning design offered then facilitated students to solidify their understanding of LCM before entering the core learning activities. Online learning design was also developed using the theory of didactical situations. After implementation, information was obtained that the learning obstacles experienced by students had no longer reappeared. Therefore, learning in schools should ensure that students have a good understanding of the prerequisites before starting the core learning activities.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted educational practices worldwide, posing significant challenges for students, particularly in mastering foundational mathematical concepts such as fraction subtraction. In response to the urgent need for effective remote learning strategies, this study aimed to develop and implement an online didactic design to reduce student learning obstacles. Employing a Didactical Design Research (DDR) approach, the design process was supported by lesson study activities at each developmental phase to ensure instructional quality. Participants included 56 students from grades VII and VIII (ages 13 to 18). The researcher served as the primary instrument, supported by additional tools including a fraction test, interview guide, documentation study, and the online didactic design itself. Thematic analysis was used to identify learning barriers, while qualitative analysis assessed the effectiveness of the design implementation. Findings revealed that during the pandemic, students experienced both ontogenic and epistemological learning obstacles in subtracting fractions. However, after the online didactic design was introduced and implemented, these learning barriers were no longer evident. Remaining difficulties were attributed to internal, non-instructional factors, such as limited personal study time, rather than issues related to instructional delivery.  This study contributes to the field of mathematics education by providing an empirically grounded model for designing online instruction that addresses specific learning barriers. The findings underscore the importance of aligning didactic design with student learning needs, especially in crisis contexts, and highlight the potential of structured online approaches to support equitable mathematics learning.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the increase in student activity and learning outcomes in flat building materials through the use of the think pair share (TPS) design. The research design used to achieve the objectives of this research was classroom action research conducted at SMP Negeri 1 Indramayu. Apart from that, the subjects in this research were 32 students in class VII B, while the instruments used in this research were student observation sheets which aimed to measure activity and formative tests given each cycle. Next, deep data analysis study uses pattern study quantitative descriptive for measure enhancement results Study mathematics students through test formative and measuring enhancement activities carried out every cycle. The results of data processing on learning outcomes obtained an average of 65.09 for cycle I, cycle II of 74.07, and cycle III of 80.45. Likewise, the increase in the number of students reaching completeness Study that is from cycle I as much 5 students out of 32 students or 22%, cycle II as many as 15 students out of 31 students or 47% of the criteria high completeness, and in cycle III there were 26 students out of 31 students or 81% included in the category the criteria for completeness are very high. Next, based on the results of data processing of student activity during the learning process obtained that cycle I had not reached the active category (A) (24 students out of 32 were inactive or 25% from target 75% so cycle I Not yet reach category active). In Cycle II there was an increase from Cycle I to reach the active category (A), namely 20 students were active in the learning process and 11 students were still not actively involved in the learning process. Additionally, in Cycles III there was a significant increase in reaching the active category (A), namely, there were 25 students, or 81% of students involved in the learning process, while the rest were still not active. This matter shows that using the Think Pair Share (TPS) design through the involvement of students and mathematics teachers can increase student activity and learning outcomes in plain material.
